To respond to someone saying "why would anyone like him" you cannot parse that SOME people think he's a bigot but OTHERS think... Unless you are one of the "others," which is 100% how your tweet reads. Otherwise you'd say "he is a bigot, but there are those who ignore that"
I hear that. My intent is a little different. It is to show that in our bubbles people see each other in radically different ways. And that when we ignore what goes on in those bubbles we misunderstand a great deal of how the world works.
Do you want me to go through racists, Islamaphobes, misogynists and even anti-semites I've known in my life and tell you the time they were nice to me? Or how they lent someone money or volunteer at hospitals, etc? Is that worthwhile to do & decontextualize them from their hate?
I'm really not sure why you think that's useful. Of course there are those that know bigots. Some admire them b/c they don't know of the bigotry. Some admire them despite the bigotry. It's worthwhile to find out the difference & inform the former and take caution with the latter
and to be clear, your tweet makes it very hard to believe you're not the latter.

Yet you completely ignore this advice when it doesn’t line up with your views
So Trump in a bubble is a great guy. That save lives. WtF?
it's not a question of a "bubble," though. it's a question of experience. and the experience Jews have had with Farrakhan is that he largely hates them, regardless of how he feels about other people or other people feel about him
As an antiracist Jewish feminist I know something of the world too. I will keep saying #BlackLivesMatter
but I wont sugar coat antisemites.
